Every profession is being asked to tell the story of its services, its offer, its uniqueness in the new world of digital media. Imagery, video, dance, drama, and music are the norm for effective messaging in the 21st century. I help educators align with the natural intelligences of their students – and stretch them – while creatively expressing the knowledge they’ve learned in any academic subject to community members who need it. My job is to make the fresh hope and vision of youth BIG, LOUD and BEAUTIFUL to strengthen the courage of the adults. At the same time, arts integration projects provide space for student mastery, autonomy, purpose and connection.
